Show HN: MapMe.io, AR platform for IoT, primarily for transportation awareness

http://MapMe.io, a AR platform for the IoT, primarily for transportation awareness. Original motivation was to create an all-software solution for the bicyclist to be more aware of something coming up from behind - as I am mostly deaf. After a few startup weekends and intel edison incubators, I'm getting close to testing with small group of alpha users in a larger city like SF (where real-time data is available for public buses). The idea for the MapMe.io is to be the software platform where real-time notifications enhance transportation safety overall. Spotter view/tab will access the phone camera for "background" of app/"foreground" for user and the alerts will give relevant alerts based on user location.

Built on Firebase with Ionic. Any suggestions on functionality or initial impressions would be great!.
